You can't program it without a Tech II. That means a trip to the
dealer or a Saab oriented mechanic. However, I don't think you can
have it programmed at all unless you have at least one remote
available. If you still have a spare, you are OK, otherwise, get out
the big checkbook.

If the computer is not "locked" in anti-theft mode, you can probably
have the dealer cut you a key. Otherwise you need to buy a new
computer for a price in excess for $1000 last I heard. If the car is
locked, you have no choice but to spring for the new computer.

The anti-theft system was designed so that no one could produce a
scanner that would unlock it (which is often done to other makes of
cars). The downside to that is that no one can reprogram the computer
- you have to replace it.
