97 passat driver door problems

[swimuk]

I am having problems replacing the outside driver door handle. The old one broke and have since purchased a new one. After putting the new handle on the door, I can not get the hammer portion on the inside to depress the opening mechanism. I can not get it moved over enough to set flush on top of the opening mechanism.

Second, After taking the inner door panel off and working on the door, the window has come off the tracking system. I have been successful in putting the window back on track put when beginning to put window up, it will get stuck half way up.

Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you
