If you would like to edit or delete responses 1-300, you can easily do so by...
1. going to your Form
2. "Responses" tab
3. View Results
4. Choose the response you'd like to change from the drop-down
3. Click the 3 dots (. . .) on the bottom right of the greyed response area
4. "Delete Response"
If you'd like to edit responses 300+, you're screwed. I've talked with Microsoft Support and as of right now (Aug 2018) you cannot edit response data over 300 submissions.

You can make an online Excel doc and have your form dump the data into the Excel doc, and that works okay.

  Brett CitrowskeIs there any way to delete more than one response with one click?
  If I want to keep the results from a group and share the Form newly emptied for another group?
  Thanks

    OLalonde Hi,
    
    You can download the previous responses into excel or create a summary link, then you can select Delete All Responses from the three button menu on the responses tab.
    
    As far as I am aware the options are delete one or delete all currently.
