how to launch command prompt as administrator using batch file

I am having a NUnit used automation framework. I was working on Windows XP previously and made a batch file to execute the complete Automation test using that batch file. But now I am using Windows 7 and when i tried to run same batch file, the Nunit is not launching. but when i tried to manually launch the command prompt as administrator, my execution is working fine.

Do anyone know how to launch command prompt as administrator through batch file

You can try following in your batch file: runas /user:machinename\administrator cmd OR runas /user:domain\user cmd

Both of the above will prompt for password.

For more details you can refer to usage of "RUNAS"
