Sorry for the late reply.

1) Insert '@echo off', as the 1st line of the.bat file, to prevent *any*
lines being echoed to the screen (this only affects the currently running
program.  Use '@echo on' to reset
echo for certain parts of the program.), or
2) prepend '@' to the beginning of each line that you don't want to see
echoed to the screen, or
3) append '> NUL' to each command, whose output you don't want to see echoed
to the screen.  I've never tried this latter option, though.

good luck.
