1997 Expedition column replacement?

My fiancee' has a '97 expo that needs the steering column replaced. Easy enough job, but my question is this:

When we swap the column over and install the original ignition switch, will the anti-theft stuff kick in? Will i need to have the vehicle reprogramed by the ford dealership?

Thanx in advance for any information

No, only the antenna is in the column. The PATS is located elsewhere and is not being changed.
