I would like to have a set of default relations for all parts, and or all assembly's. Can this be done?

Is this the part and assembly mode configuration options?

Okay, there are multiple things at play here.

First, if you want to add additional parameters to the 'out of the box' start parts, you will need to manually open those cad models, add the parameter, and then save them back to the same directory. There are located in the <loadpoint>\templates directory. Most people don't bother with this but instead build their own templates, store them somewhere else, and then point Creo to these folders/models instead (as Steve mentioned).

Second, if you create a parameter and you want it to automatically show up in the list when create a new part from it, you have to designate it. Simply check the box next to the parameter in the designate column.

No. You would have to manually add the relations statement to each model manually. The only two options I can think of are either writing a custom program to do this for you (J-Link, VB, SmartAssembly, etc.), or possibly doing something with Model Check.
