Disable delay lock horn

Disable delay lock horn
I just traded my 2003 Avalanche for a 2007 Tahoe. How do I disable the horn sounding when I lock the vehicle using the door lock switch? They delay 5 seconds but I don't want the horn sounding. With the AV, the doors would just lock after the 5 second delay without the horn sounding. I went through the DIC options and there didn't seem to be an obivious option.
The Tahoe is a great ride and I'm really enjoying it.
Thanks,

RE: Disable delay lock horn
I set my to lock on first press on button and honk on second press. Be aware that if you lock with the rocker switch on the arm rest, the alarm doesn't set. At least that's what the manual seems to say and the way mine works.

Delayed Locking
When locking the doors with the power lock switch and a door or the liftgate is open, the doors will lock five seconds after the last door is closed. You will hear three chimes to signal that the delayed locking feature is in use. Pressing the power lock switch twice or the lock button on the RKE transmitter twice will override the delayed locking feature and immediately lock all the doors. This feature will not operate if the key is in the ignition. You can program this feature using the Driver Information Center (DIC). See DELAY DOOR LOCK under DIC Vehicle Customization

RE: Disable delay lock horn
Thanks ZX, BUT it doesn't work that way on my truck. I press the door lock and 5 seconds later the doors lock and the horn sounds. Through the DIC I can:
1) Turn off the door lock delay feature,
2) Turn it on,
3) Accept the default, which locks the door and sounds the horn.
I'm taking it to the dealer tomorrow to have some paint chips fixed and will ask them.
Thanks for the responses though. I always found the folks on the Alvalanche fan club board very helpful and I think you guys will be very helpful as well.
