Is there a "this wood / that food" chart?

I'm new to smoking and recently purchased a MES 40.  I've used it twice so far, having smoked ribs and a brisket.  So far I've only used hickory.  My wife, however, also bought a bag of apple chips and a bag of cherry chips.  I've also heard/read that pecan is used by many people who smoke.

I think I may have seen a chart somewhere that recommends which wood compliments which food.  Can anyone point me to a chart like that?
