Aggregate Query

Is there a way to create a grouping query and be allowed to edit the
data. I want to create a query that has a grouping and totals but also
allow the user to edit. Can it be done?

No. All queries with Group By are readonly.

Regular Select queries with perhaps a few DSum columns can still be
editable.

How would Access know which records to update?

Now, you could use your query to fill a temp table to be used in a form. You
would need to supply code to update or append records when the temp table is
changed. Realize the temp table is static, any changes to the underlying
tables by other users would NOT be visible to the form.

You could create a table (MakeTable query). But it wouldn't be dynamic
thus kind of useless.
