Database type

I looked in the forum but haven't been able to find anything on the type of database to use utf8 or latin1 also would it be utf8_general ? or something else or when choosing Latin1 should it be latin1_swedish . I have the db on my local set to utf8_general but do notice that certain tables in the db are latin1_swedish namely from apsona and product_extra_fields. Could sombody clarify this or is there a link to where this info would be?

Thank you

If you wait to do everything until you're sure it's right, you'll probably never do much of anything !!!
