Thanks

From the HELP file
To delete a transition you can move the clips apart or apply a scissors cut on the right hand side of the transition, then select the transition & press delete.To specify a default transition for overlapping clips you will need to set it in the Preferences dialog box.
To set a default transition:
1. Select File: Preferences
2. Click the Edit tab.
3. In Default transition effect click the Select button.
4. Choose any transition from the list in the Production Library pop-up window.
5. Click OK to apply the settings.

To change a transition, first click on the transition so it appears in the effects window.
Only the transition section of the clips being transitioned should be selected. If one of the clips being transitioned is selected (and not the transition itself), the transition will not appear in the effects window. Normally (and a little annoyingly), you have to click in a blank space of the timeline so that no clips are selected, then you can click on the transition so that only the transition is selected.
Now, with the transition in the effects window, click the small + button as if you were going to add an effect. Then select a new transition from the window that opens and it will replace the old one.
There may be another, easier way which I haven't discovered though...

To simply change a transition (from the help file again 
, press F1)
, press F1)To manually add a transition effect:
1. Place two video clips on a video track, making sure the clips overlap a little.
2. Open the Production Library and select the Transition Effect folder to display its gallery of effects.
The Transition Effect gallery displays all the available transition effects in Video Editor. There are over one hundred transitions which are conveniently grouped into folders. Each effect is displayed as an animated thumbnail for easy identification.
3. Drag-and-drop an effect onto the overlapping clips.
4. Double-click on the transition in timeline, Transition Options dialog box appears. Click OK and preview.
The Transition Options dialog box is where you can customize your transitions. You can alter the speed, the direction, the border, and apply any number of little nuances to your transition with the Key Frame Controller. Each effect has slightly different controls. Refer to the next section for details.

Update!
Just been doing some exploring and there is an easier way to change transitions!
In the Production Library Window (normally top left), select a transition and drag it to the existing transition you want replaced. When you release the mouse after dragging, left click again to drop the transition into place. Easy
