What remote do I need?

I have just bought a 2000 Montana that had no keyless remotes with it. For all the other options in it (nearly everything except power sliding doors), I am reasonably sure that it came with remote(s) when it was new. Is there any way to find out which remote features I have, short of going to a dealership and testing them? Or, if I buy a 4-button remote (with rear door and alarm) and program it, will it still work the locks if that's the only feature my van has?

What a great site, by the way!

Just call the dealership parts department with your VIN# and they can tell you immediately over the phone. You can also get cheap remotes sometimes on e-bay, but have the dealer tell you what #'s work. Good Luck, Marty
