Driver Window not Dropping

[RogerD]

Of all the posts on this subject I didn't see one like my particular situation. While sitting in the vehicle and pulling the door exit handle the window drops fine and I can exit. Sometimes right after that I can also close the door with no problem. However if I open the door from the outside the window drops and when the door is open about 12" the window goes back up and the only way it will stay down is to keep pulling up on the door handle. Thoughts?

I have done some more studying on this today and it seems the window position is related to the door latch position. I can wiggle the door latch and the window will index up and down. I have sprayed different lubes in the latch but nothing seems to help, could the latch spring be broken or stretched?
