Is there a tpl.php file generated by Drupal 7 for custom content types I seem to remember it being mentioned somewhere in the past that when you create a new content type in Drupal 7 that there is a corresponding node--[content-type].tpl.php file created somewhere by Drupal core. I may be wrong. However, if there is such a file created, how do I find it so I can copy it in to my theme? 

Maybe it defaults to the node.tpl.php file, but I thought a new file for the custom content was created. Just don't know where to find it if it is created.

TIA
No; Drupal doesn't ever create template files dynamically.

For new content types the default node.tpl.php, or the one provided by the enabled theme, will be used.
