sObject casting when you use generic sObject and then convert that into a concrete sObject.
example:-
Map<String, Schema.SObjectType> gd = Schema.getGlobalDescribe();
Schema.SobjectType oType = gd.get('account');
account object_instance = (account)oType.newSObject(); - [adinserter block='9']

You will need to cast from a generic sobject to a concrete sobject like an opportunity or case or account then do the insert. I've not had to do this before but I have read that you can look at the first 3 letters of objects id or use describe the information to determine what concrete type is being held by the generic. the syntax would be just like you intuited (account)oType.newSobject()
