Combined Insert/Update/Delete

I have a simple table where I identify the group membership of various
items. It looks like this:

AutoIncrement | Item | Group
-------------------------------
1 | Foo | GroupA
2 | Foo | GroupB
3 | Bar | GroupA

I'm trying to put together a function that'll take a group and a list
of items and modify the table to match: delete rows that aren't in the
list, add missing rows, and update the matches. And I'm having a
terrible time doing this.

I'm figuring that this is a problem that has been encountered about a
bazillion times in the past and there's a standard "recipe" solution,
however I can't seem to find it after a day of searching.

If anybody can provide guidance on this it would be greatly
appreciated.

Thank you,

Justin
