Full Screen in DOS Batch

Hi. I know that pressing the Alt+Enter key will toogle a DOS window in XP back and forth from full screen and regular size.
I wrote a simple .BAT application that launches my DOS program, but I can't figure out how to get it to launch in FULL SCREEN. I know it's possible, but simply including a simple line in my code. Just can't figure out what that is. Any help is appreciated. Thank you!
