Is there a way to disengage a stuck door latch on a longroof?

My 94 estate wagon shares my daily driver status with my 89 dakota. When I got her the drivers side door would only open from the outside occasionally. Self tapping screws in the door panel notified me that i was not the first to attempt this repair. I removed the panel and exterior handle and found that the rod between the exterior door handle and the latch mechanism was bent and/or out of adjustment. I removed the clip on the ext. handle threaded the rod a few times into the connector. I reconnected everything and closed the door perfectly 20 times! I "fixed" it! I then drove to the store and the door has not opened since. The panel is still off so I have plenty of access. I have tried with screwdrivers, picks and pliers to disengage the latch but it will not budge!

I have been using the passenger door to get in and out for over a year and my driveway has a gate on it.

Please help!
sincerely,
stuck in sebastopol
