No. In Sybase Transact-SQL, the from keyword in a delete statement is optional.

Everything went worng, just as foreseen.

    The reason the FROM is optional is that you can do the following in Transact-SQL: 
    delete mytable
  from mytable m, theirtable t
 where m.somevalule = t.somevalue

    The same syntax can be used for UPDATE. Very nice for doing set based operations.
