Not sure if this would work but you could try leaving a blank row at the top then drag this down from cell B2..

=IF(A2="",0,B1+1)

If you have excel 2007

If your first t is in cell A2 do below, if it is not cell A2 the formulas will need adjusting!

In column B next to your first t, copy and paste this formula~
=IF(A3="",COUNTIFS(AA$2:AA$500,AA2,A$2:A$500,"t"),"")
Fill down for as many rows that have a t in them

In cell AA2 enter a 1
In cell AA3 copy and paste this formula~
=IF($A3="","",IF(AND($A3="t",A2=""),AA1+1,AA2))

Fill down for as many rows that have a t in them

COUNTIFS will not work in excel prior to excel 2007
