Using wireless Linksys router and access point I am able
to connect to Internet from both computers on the same
workgroup. However either of the computer does not see the
other. Both computers have TCP/IP, file and printer
sharing and client for microsoft netwroks installed. What
am I missing? Please Help.

Hello Parvin

Is both computers configured with same workgroup name?
Also, u may use \\computername\sharedFolderName to access the computer.

NetBIOS over TCP/IP enabled? If not, try connecting like this from the
command line:

net use * \\x.x.x.x\sharename

It may ask for credentials. x.x.x.x = ip address of target system.

If you connect and don't want to enable set the target systems in each of
the local HOSTS files located in:
%systemroot%\system32\drivers\etc

HTH...
