Using a Password With an SQL IN Clause

I am trying to delete records from an external database using a SQL IN
clause, but my syntax is obviously flawed. My code looks like this: DELETE *
FROM myTable IN "C:\myFolder\myDatabase_BE.mdb" ";PWD=abcd"

This gives me an error message that says my password is invalid although I
am using the same password in a SELECT statement without a problem.

One workaround would be to temporarily attach the table, run the
Delete statement, and detach.
