Mike,
I know very little about Windows API to control browsers neither I know much
about smartclients. But I can offer a general work around. You can exchange
data or commands between any processes by sharing a common resource, for
example a file.
When the form is done, it can write a file in a preset location. On the
browser side, you can start a javascript timer that will check if the file
is present or not. If it is, the form must have finished and the browser can
refresh itself.

Greetings, I have an aspx page where on it is a link that calls my
smartclient (a windows form) that opens up. When the user is done in
the form, he or she hits a button that saves data and closes the
form. I want the smartclient to call the opened browser (IE6 and
maybe 7 down the line) and refresh the aspx page. The page contains a
datagrid control that gets populated on the page's load event. Does
anyone know how you can do that? Is there an Windows API call that I
can use to tell the web browser window to refresh? Any help would be
great.
Thanks, Mike
