Check the SHEAR PIN. I had the same issue ALMOST open and the roof would get snagged enough on the tonneau cover to make me get out and move the tonneau cover rearwards to let the top go down. Same on closing, the roof would catch on the tonneau cover.

"Check the SHEAR PIN. I had the same issue"
Exactly! Thank-you. My wonderful, most talented local Saab repair person found and corrected the problem the same day. It most recently needed an "adjustment" for the same problem and he did it for free (as I was getting another few things done).
As a note, he described the pin (as there are several) that helped the cover close gently and not slam, if that is helpful to anyone. ALSO, he just "happened" to have a pin in the shop. Apparently they are in limited supply?
Thanks again.
Now having headlight problems. Guess I'll try a post for that.
