Hi
on WM5 I want to trap calendar reminders so that I present my own
message and sound.
I tried working with SNAPI and SystemProperty but I cannot figure how
to trap the above event.
Any help would be appreciated.

Probably the easiest approach would be to disable the reminder on the
appointment and register your own notification event e.g.
CeSetUserNotificationEx, which will allow you to customize the sound used
and use your own text for title and body of notification bubble.

I would prefer the SNAPI solution if that is possible because it is so
easy developing applications using it.

You're looking for an easy way to do it, but its not so easy. SNAPI is
not going to help you here. As Peter put it, using the
Ce*UserNotification APIs are the only way to do what you're asking for.
