Script to STAR/STOP Oracle 11g Std.One DB on Windows Server 2008

Question

Hi, all
Every friday we need backup our Windws Server 2008 ( Full backup),
To do that, we need
1.- 5:00pm Shutdown our Oracle 11g Std.One Database
2.- 5:05 Launch the FULL Backup procees 5:05pm.
3.- 5:10 Wait until the backup is finished (2 hours aprox.) in a external disk.
3.- 7:15 Startup Oracle 11g 5 min.
Is there any script we can use in a Windows Server schedule job, to Stop oracle at 5pm and Startup Oracle lets say at 8:00pm??
Thanks in advance.

Thanks in advance.Just like any scripting .. same commands you would issue at a command line .. put them in a script file. Unfortuanately, Windows, among it's various scripting limitations (vis a vis *nix) does not all the kind of input redirection needed to do it in a single file.
Solution is something like this:
echo shutdown immedate > shutdown.sql
echo exit >> shutdown.sql
sqlplus / as sysdba @ shutdown.sql
del shutdown.sql
exitput that in a .cmd file. schedule .cmd file
