Domain at work, Workgroup at home

I have a new laptop and it's a member of a domain when I'm at work,
connected to a wires-only network.

When I get home I connect to my wireless router for internet access and this
works just fine. However, I'd like to also browse the files on my home
network (a workgroup).

How do I go about getting Windows XP to access the workgroup without
stopping it from being a member of the domain at work? I think I'll loose
the domain if I run the Wizard from the "Network ID" button in My Computer's
Properties.

Can someone give me a few pointers?

TIA

Yes, I have the administritive passwords for both that /is/ something I can
do. So there's no other option apart from leaving the domain and joining the
workgroup and vice versa? Is there any 3rd party software that will do this
automatically?

Actually maybe I'm asking the wrong question? All I want to do is access one
of the shared folders on one of the machines on my Workgroup at home.

Should this be possible without actually leaving the domain?

The reason I ask this is because at work, when I look in Network
Connections>Entire Network I can see our work's domain and a workgroup. When
connected via wireless at home I only see the domain (which I'm obviously no
longer connected to).
