How to delete a windows media playlist programmatically

I am using a C# application where I have to create a playlist. At the end of this application on form close I want to delete this play list which has been created. How do I do this?

what I want is WMP.playlistCollection.remove("myplaylist");

This is wrong and does not work. Is there something similar?

WMP.playlistCollection.remove()

removes the playlist from windows media player, but the file are still present in the file system int the My Documents/MyMusic/My Playlists folder.

As stated here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/dd564786(v=vs.85).aspx

"Remarks

This method deletes an item from the library. This method does not delete files from the user's computer."

you need to give Playlist object as the parameter 

IWMPPlaylistArray plCollection = WMP.playlistCollection.getByName("myplaylist");
if (plCollection.count > 0)
{
    IWMPPlaylist pl = plCollection.Item(0);
    WMP.playlistCollection.remove(pl);
}
