i had the same problem. pop the door panel off and there is a little release latch you would need to get a long screw driver and push. I would look on the other door just to see how it works first and you should be able to figure it out from there.

Remove the door trim
If it's only the handle that's broken, then you should be able to open it with the trim removed

Honestly, this is one of those jobs I would just have figure out on the way - it's just door trim!
 Try this link tho; http://www.unofficialbmw.com/e36/int...or_panels.html Failing that, just stick 'e36 door trim removal' in a search engine
