You need to activate word application before changing/setting windowstate:
"...Use the Activate method to activate a window prior to setting the window state..." (VBA for Word Help on "Windowstate property").
The problem is that you can not activate invisible word application. But if it is visible, then you do not need to issue additional 'activate'.
So why not to use this:
oword=createobj....
oword.visible=.t.
oword.Windowstate=2
....
