Filter based on count of rows and pattern

Hi All,

 

Below is a sample of my data set - 

What I'm trying to do is filter only those entries for within the B count where number of (attach) = Number (detach) and occurring consecutively - so for every attach there has to be a detach as the next event.I also want to keep the grouping by B count in the output. I'm struggling a little bit in terms of what function to use - I was thinking if there is function that would count the number of rows that would contain attach and detach and I could use a Mod function to output based on even number of events? I was also trying some form of logic with the mutli row formula but no luck so far! Thanks in advance!

 

 

Input 

IDEvent

B Count

1Attach1
1Detach1
1Attach1
1Detach1
2Attach4
2Attach5
2Attach5
2Detach5
2Detach5
3Attach100
3Detach100
3Attach101
3Detach101

 

 Expected output

1Attach1
1Detach1
1Attach1
1Detach1
3Attach100
3Detach100
3Attach101
3Detach101
