Hi
I belong to a small computer club which uses xp on a
linked series of laptops. When I open up my computer tree
and go to My Network Places, then Entire Network, then
Microsoft Windows Network, I find two workgroups listed;
Club and MShome. How can I delete either of the named
workgroups, as there is no delete option that I can find,
so that there is only one workgroup listed?

There's no explicit way to delete a workgroup. If no computers belong
to it, the workgroup will automatically disappear after a while.
