It's a nice description about Content type.
As a beginner I got the required information about it.

I want to know whether a datatype of a column in Content type after connected to a List can be changed.

Hope,i would get a response.

Thank You

I will say that I was giddy with excitement thinking I had an answer to a perhaps-simple question. I did not, so I'll ask you here, If I may. I wanted to change the user experience after creating a new content type. The user pulls down from the list of content types available and selects one. The form that appears basically says: "New Item". How can I change to say "New [Insert Content Type Name Here]", instead of the generic "new Item?". Great post!

Do you want just a random document to be added when you hit new? I'm not certain where such a scenario would be appropriate, but you can certainly override the 'New' button, and menu, to do mostly whatever you like. I'll encourage you to look at part 3 of this series to get an intro to CAML and then look at how the New item on the toolbar gets contructed. You might also be able to do this using a CustomAction, briefly described in part 2 of this series.<br><br>.b I'm not sure I fully understand your question.
