99 Expy Window Probs

Hello, all. Have a 99 EB EXPY with power windows. Drivers' side window stuck at the top, then dropped. I took off door panel, saw that it won't stay in the clips on the rail/ glide. I put the window back in the clips, rolled it up, then when I rolled it down again, the same thing. It's like the weatherstipping has expanded somehow, as it grabs the window tight at the top, won't let go (and pulling it out of the clips on the glide/rail inside), then it drops. Any ideas? Can I just put some new adhesive on the clips, grease the glides and hope for the best?
Any advice would be appreciated. Right now, the window is up & I'm not going to roll it down till I know I can fix it.
Thanks
Greg

Well, I took apart the door (again), silicone sprayed the rubber tracks, white lithium grease on the track that the window sits on, and put some new silicone adhesive on the window mount clips. Let sit for 12 hours and, voila! works just like new. My next project will be to do the same for the other windoows (silicone the tracks and lift rail).
