Can you give me tips on locating standard subdivisions in records?

Subject 1 Hierarchies 
Subject 2 Standard subdivisions 
DDC number  

Good news! As of the August 2004 release, standard subdivisions that are explicitly listed in the DDC are now included in the hierarchical display for schedule records. For example, prior the August release, you would need to click on the "Standard and special subdivisions" link (which routed to a browse view) in record 338.47 to learn that there are standard subdivisions on triple zeros and special zero subdivisions that are subordinate to record 338.47. After August, that information is readily apparent in the schedule record. For further information, please refer to http://www.oclc.org/dewey/enhancements/enhancement200408.htm
