If window 2 is minimized in the Dock, and you want to display it:

Set bounds of window 2 to {57, 91, 1150, 865}

Works OMM (OSX 10.1.5, Word X)

... This works well, with one caveat. One X coordinate (left or right) needs to change from the current bounds of the window. Since, in my case, it is likely to stay the same, I set the bounds twice, once with an X coordinate (and, for good measure, a Y coordinate, although this doesn't seem to matter) set to one pixel off where I want it. Then I set the bounds again with the right numbers.
