Can anyone give advice on closing a sunroof stuck about halfway open?

The sunroof is stuck a bit less than half-way. It will move about a half inch forward or back and then begins to make a terrible grinding noise. I am guessing that it is a motor problem. Before i have that replaced I am wondering if there is a way to manually close the sunroof. Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks!

only if you can disconnect the glass from the track and you have to remove headliner to do that.more than likely a cable has broken. best thing here is to get plastic the stiffer is better and duct tape it to car. tape all the way across all around so as to not get water inside if it rains.
