The fault is definately inside the transmission .. you probably have worn forward gear clutch plates/rings or a bad solonoid switch inside the transmission .. it needs striiping down to discover the exact fault and repair ... it is possible to repair/recondition most transmissions/gearbox's .. on rare occassions there are metal parts inside which "smash up" .. a good transmission repair centre is your best option for repair !!
