jetta remote problems!

Ok so I just replaced the batteries in both of my keyless remotes to my 99 Jetta GLS (new body style) and now neither one are working. Not only that, but the alarm is on and the key will not deactivate the alarm when I unlock the door. This means I can't start the car. Of course the wonderful people at VW told me to drive the car in and they will take a look at it. This is right after I told HER that my car won't start with out deactivating the alarm..... Genius. This is not a towing kind of problem I know. All I did is replace some batteries. And Yes they are in correctly.. The ones I had in there were CR 1620, and that's what the new ones are. The wierd thing is when I put the old batteries back in the remote... they still wouldn't work. Anyone have any ideas???? This is very frustrating and I NEED my car!!!

Here is the programming procedure
Remote Locking/alarm system transmitters, Programming/Reprogramming Model(s): Golf, GTI, Jetta with remote 1998locking
If new or additional remote locking/alarm system transmitters are required, use the following procedure to program the new transmitter or reprogram existing transmitters. Note :Up to a maximum of four transmitters may be programmed for each vehicle.
Programming procedure for all four transmitters MUST be completed within one minute.
Service - Switch ignition ON. - Close all doors and rear hatch/trunk lid. - Using second key in driver's door, turn key to UNLOCK position and hold for approx. 10 seconds or until alarm horn sounds 3 times. - Press the unlock/disarm button on first transmitter (alarm horn will briefly sound once to confirm programming). - Press the unlock/disarm button on second transmitter (alarm horn will briefly sound twice to confirm programming). - Repeat procedure for transmitters 3 and 4 (if necessary). - Turn and hold the key in the driver's door lock to the UNLOCK position (Within ten seconds the alarm horn will sound 3 times). - Switch ignition OFF. Note :For security reasons, the convenience close feature for power windows and sunroof are activated using the key only. If one transmitter is activated 200 times consecutively (out of reach of the vehicle), all transmitters MUST be reprogrammed.
When procedure applies to vehicles within The New Vehicle Limited Warranty and adheres to Warranty Policy guidelines, use the following:
