Exclamation Help!!!"97 Continental Tranny Problem!!!!

Hi Everyone, I'm new to the board, but have "lurked" for a long time.

Here's my problem:I have a 1997 Continental with 200 000km, sometimes, even with the lever in drive, the car goes into neutral at a stop. When I accelerate to pull away, it'll either stay in neutral, or suddenly jump into gear. When in motion, the car shifts smoothly through gears. On other occasions after I start the car, whether I put it in R, OD, D, nothing engages, and the car is in Neutral. If I turn the ignition off, and restart, the problem usually never occurs again. Does anyone know what the problem may be? I'm supposed to be trading the car in in 2 weeks!! Help!! Any possible short term fix would also be appreciated.
