From your description it sounds like the door will open manually using either the inside or outside handles, and.....The unlock (and lock?) function doesn't work electronically using the center console switch, the door switch, or the FOB. I don't think that the power window amplifier in each door of the 94Q has anything to do with the lock function so it's got to be a faulty door lock actuator (DLA) located in the bottom of each door. You should be able to get a used one in the parts forum. Front and rear are the same if they're from the same side (DS or PS).
While you're replacing the DLA pull out the window regulator and give it a good cleaning and lube before it fails completely. If nothing has broken on it (plastic cable connectors, frayed cable) you should be able to bring it back to full speed with a little cleaner, lube and elbow grease.
The lost screw has nothing to do with the door lock function but the airbag may inflate randomly when the screw touches two of the wrong wires. Just kidding.
