Sample Code:

Start an Application in 5 minutes. (Even when the device is suspending)

  string appName = "\\Application.exe";
  string args= "";
  System.DateTime dt = System.DateTime.Now.AddMinutes( 5 );

  CE_NOTIFICATION_TRIGGER notificationTrigger = new CE_NOTIFICATION_TRIGGER();

  notificationTrigger.Type = 2;
  notificationTrigger.AppName = appName;
  notificationTrigger.Args = args;
  notificationTrigger.StartTime = new SYSTEMTIME( dt );
  notificationTrigger.EndTime = new SYSTEMTIME();
  notificationTrigger.Size = (UInt32)Marshal.SizeOf( notificationTrigger ); // This line needs the compile switch /unsafe

  notificationTrigger.Type = 2;
  notificationTrigger.AppName = appName;
  notificationTrigger.Args = args;
  notificationTrigger.StartTime = new SYSTEMTIME( dt );
  notificationTrigger.EndTime = new SYSTEMTIME();
  IntPtr notificationHandle = CeSetUserNotificationEx( IntPtr.Zero, notificationTrigger, null );
