An equivelant DOS command for & or &&


This question has to do with DOS commands. I know, I know... still, what I'm looking for is a command that allows you to run a program and then another in the same shell (cmd.exe) that is similar to & or &&.

That the same as under bash! Just an '&' and the program will run in the background.
