While setting up my network with XP I accidentally set up
two workgroups (MSHOME and MYNET). How do I delete a
workgroup?

Thanks to anyone that can help!

There's no explicit way to delete a workgroup. If no computers are
members of the workgroup, it will eventually disappear.

Just change the names to be the same and you can try to force a workgroup
election by running NBTSTAT -rr, at a minimun it should clear you local name
cache.
