Hello.

In general, You can  never be sure that (some time in future) you
won't need to store different national characters. For example some
non-english surname or whatever.
So, If you can easily decide it now, use UTF. It's painless choice now
and it can come handy in future.

Hi All,

What character sets would you recommend for a server in the US and all data
stays within the English language.
Currently everything is set to latin1 with latin1_swedich_ci collation which
seems to be the closets one to what I need from what I have read, I was just
wondering if there is a better option (e.g. What about UTF or Unicode)

Thanks
Olaf
