I have the following line to run a batch file, 

```
Process process = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("cmd /c start rake.bat");

```

But I want it to run in the background and not display the command line to the user. How can I change it to do this?

The problem is that the command window opens and intrupts the programs GUI. I just want the command window to not be visible while it is executing the batch file.
