Split Table by Field

Greetings...

I have a table that looks like:

Timestamp | Action | User
YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS| Fail | User1
YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS | Succeed| User2
YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS| Succeed| User1
YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS| Succeed| User1
YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS| Fail| User2

Is there a way to break this down into separate tables by User such that:
YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS| Fail | User1
YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS| Succeed| User1
YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS| Succeed| User1

YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS | Succeed| User2
YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS| Fail| User2

That's right, because it wasn't in the request.

It's not easy to open a line.

This gets me pretty close.

I guess there is no trellis for a stats table.
