Default Won't open with key fob, will alarm sound if I open with key??

I left my car for a few days, came back and now it won't open with the fob. If I open with the key and put it in the ignition will the alarm sound as I haven't unlocked it with the fob?

The reason I've not just tried it as I only have one fob and fear I may not be able to stop the alarm. I had a problem a little while ago with the alarm going off and don't want it to happen again

Thanks

I've opened mine with the key and the alarm did not activate.

Opening the driver's door with the key deactivates the alarm. Opening the other door or trunk lid with the key without first unlocking the drivers door will activate the alarm.
