Daft as it sounds, try pushing the door firmly inwards for a split second before you try to pull it open. If this allows the door to open then you should spray plenty of WD40 into the latch area.

Door is fine now, used a maintaince spray inside door handle, (not wd 40 ) left for 24hrs, opened drivers door locked and unlocked on key fob, door works perfect, although now have turned off child lock, at least if it ever happens again, I know I can open the door from the inside,,,,,again thanks, have a nice week-end,,regards.
