In case you want it... the first batch file contains this code:
-- code below
@echo off
start /min "Uploading Map" "ftpnew.bat"
exit
-- end
the start /min command starts the batch file minimized so the instand
it starts, the first batch ends and closes. Usually less than half a second.

Larry,
I have a launch command that launches a batch file. I had a
similar problem, the whole time the batch program was running
(ftp'ing something every 5 minutes) it had focus and was causing
me to stop working.
The work around was a batch file that calls the batch file. Yes,
the first one still flashes (only momentarily) then the other runs
in the backround.
This may not be exactly what you need but I get so much from this
list I thought I would offer.

I have an R:Base program which builds a batch file to perform some
system level processing. I can LAUNCH the batch file, it works great.
However, a DOS window flashes on the screen while the batch file
operates. There's no output, so there's no need for the window or
the flashing.
Can anyone think of a clever way to launch a batch file "invisibly"?
Failing that, does anyone (paging MikeB, paging MikeB, Mr. B please
pick up the white courtesy phone) have the STDCALL worked out to do
this directly through ShellExecEx?
