However, (for several reasons) grass.script is not installed to the system
(to the python installation), so you need to tell your IDE where to look
for the grass.scripting. One possibility is to set PYTHONPATH environmental
variable (which will then appear in sys.path in python) for the IDE:

http://www.wingware.com/doc/intro/tutorial-python-path

Maybe there is some settings even directly in the editor. The path should
be set to the directory where grass.script, i.e. something like:

C:\path\to\grass\etc\python\

The way which works the best for me, on Ubuntu with Spyder Python IDE, is
starting the editor from within the GRASS session (GRASS command line).
This ensures that the environment is set right and you not only have the
autocomplete and documentation but also that you can run your python GRASS
scripts in the IDE. In theory, this should work the same on MS Windows.
