Getting absloute co-ordinates in maya

hi,

is there any way in maya to display absolute co-ordinates? I've got a couple of vertices that have moved out of symmetry on my modes and I wan to get the aligned again, but don't want to divide and mirror.

How can I find out it's exact place in space so I can re-locate its opposite?

thanks,

gubar
