Run Multiple commands in a single line in windows command prompt

When I execute the following commands separately i can get the information of the mnc file

  C:>set path=%path%;C:\Program Files\MINC\bin

  C:>mincinfo image.mnc

But I want to run it in a single line. So i tried this as

  C:>set path=%path%;"C:\Program Files\MINC\bin" && mincinfo image.mnc

But it gives the following error,

'mincinfo' is not recognized as an internal or external command,

 operable program or batch file.

Is there something wrong in my commands? Please help to solve it.

You can of course specify the full path of the program to execute, without needing to add it to the PATH variable.

C:>"C:\Program Files\MINC\bin\mincinfo" image.mnc

if you concatenate your commands with &&, the whole line will be parsed at one time. The result is, the path is yet the old path for the second command.
