Default Flat battery and locked out...Help !

I had to leave my car for 2 weeks, and on return, the battery was flat. I tried to open the drivers door with the key, but it appears that someone had previously changed the door lock (door ?) and so the key will not turn in the lock. I used the old trick of removing the two hood latch bolts, and at last was able to get under the hood. I charged the battery, but now every time I reconnect the battery, it thinks it is being stolen, and the alarm goes off, and the remote will no longer open the doors. Anyone have any tips on how to over come this .............
Many thanks in advance
