The following delete query:

and
DoCmd.RunSQL "delete [SRF#] from [SBCD] where [SRF#]='" & strInput & "'"
Are they equivalent in term of functionality?
Yes.
I've never used the latter, from a logical standpoint that could look like:
"update sbcd set [srf#]=null where [SRF#]='" & strInput & "'" as it
looks like it's deleting one column and not the entire row.
Access' delete statement is an enigma as the syntax looks column based
yet the delete command itself is rowset based. Compare that to SQL
Server where the command would be:
delete from tablename where columnname='something'
