Yes, essentially, the door latches were closed. How did that happen? I dunno.

But, I viewed a few vids on the net and finally got them open by simultaneously: 1) using the key to "unlock"; 2) pulling up on the door handle; and 3) moving the latch manually (didn't need a screwdriver).

Viola, latch open, door closed.

Egad., I think this happened on another car of mine back in 1985 lol

Thanks all for the pointers!
