2006 Pano Roof Help?

I will try to remember the exact sequence of what happened, but I am not absolutely positive:
  1. Used sunroof last night. It sounded and behaved normally.
  2. Closed the roof (inner panels and outer glass when I arrived home).
  3. Drove to work this morning, shut off the engine and then turned the key back on to acc mode so I could open the roof shade.
  4. As the shade started moving back, I stopped it (one push up) so that I could restart the opening with two clicks (I wanted the glass to open too.) Noticed that only the shade was moving.
  5. After the shade was fully retracted, I tried again to open the glass. No soap.
  6. Tried to close the shade, but got no response.
  7. Thought maybe I blew a fuse so pulled the glove box 30 amp fuse. Tried the roof again, no response.
  8. Tried using the key to move the roof. Could cycle the locks and could open and close the windows, but the roof still would not move.
  9. Assuming there was a reset circuit in the switch, held it for a few seconds to see if it would move. No dice.
  10. Decided to try to figure it out later. Went in to work.
  11. Checked the web and found that the button needs to be held 75 seconds to reset.
  12. At lunch, got into the car and started it. Without pressing any buttons, inner shade moved forward. (It either moved all the way forward and then when I tried to open it again, it only went two inches -OR- It closed all the way except the last two inches, I don't remember which). Thereafter, it would not move again.
  13. Tried holding the button up for 75+ seconds. No response from the roof.
  14. Went back to work.
  15. When I got home, I read in another thread that the engine should not be running when reset/re-initiazation was attempted. Tried again; turned the key to acc. and this time held the button for well over two minutes. No movement.
So that is when it stands. The glass is closed and the inner shade is open two inches. Can anyone tell me if I did something wrong in the re-initialization procedure, or if there is another fuse/relay I need to find and check?

Thanks.
