tricks on removing pass.door int.?

hi all

as part of my clean up of my 93 FD i have pulled most of the peeling interior panels and repainted them with "plasticote black gold" i think it looks real good, not as flashy and smooth as is the current fashion but not as dull as the OEM types

everything's gone pretty well except i just can't get the passenger's door trim off to paint the last matt black part of the car, than swoopy looking door closing handle for the passenger

i have removed all the screws i can find in the order suggested in the service manual and the whole panel is loose at the bottom but something still seems to be holding it, inside, at the top....

anyone had this happen before

will have another go sunday and don't want to tear anything out

thanks guys it was that screw

i was in the garage in the dark with a lead light and even with the electric window switch out it was a hard little sucker to find as it seems aimed up a little

anyway the trim is off and i now need to get another can of the most noxious paint thinner to bubble the old paint off
