    Running Win/Loss streaks, ignoring Ties

    Hi - With the help of this forum, I was able to determine the longest streak for Wins and Losses. But I'm trying to have a running count of Win/Loss streaks, while ignoring Ties for the following set of data (also attached):

    A B
    1 W
    2 L
    3 W
    4 W
    5 T
    6 T
    7 W
    8 W
    9 T
    10 L
    11 L
    12 T
    13 T
    14 W
    15 W

    Column A1:A15 represents Win, Loss, or Tie.
    I'm having a hard time figuring out on how to show in column B the current Winning and Lossing streaks. The catch is that Ties are ignored and streak is the same as previous W/L streak. So column B should show:

    A B
    1 W 1
    2 L 1
    3 W 1
    4 W 2
    5 T 2
    6 T 2
    7 W 3
    8 W 4
    9 T 4
    10 L 1
    11 L 2
    12 T 2
    13 T 2
    14 W 1
    15 W 2

    I have the following formulas:
    B1: = IF(A1="T",0,1)
    B2: = IF(A2=A1,B1+1,(IF(A2="T",B1,1)))
    B3: = IF(A3=A2,B2+1,(IF(A3="T",B2,1)))
    B4:B15: formula copied from above cell....

    It works if I just have one T follows by a W or L. It doesn't work when I have a streak of T's. Can someone help? Thanks.
