Props Vs Jets

Just wondering what the major differences are operationally between say using a 40-50 set turbo-prop aircraft to say a 40-50 seat jet aircraft?

I'm interested to know why an airline would choose say a Dash-8 prop aircraft over say an Bombardier CRJ-200??

I suppose it would be something to do with range, pax numbers, baggage capacity, destination strip sizes etc, but if anyone could add to that then that would be great.

Thanks for your replies.....
