Default what transmission fluid to use

i have a 5th gen automatic, and have noticed that some of you guys use 10W-30 oil in the transmission. Is this okay for automatics, or do I stick with transmission fluid. Also, when i change it, what type of fluid should i use

Alright, is the fluid the same for both transmissions? And if not, what is the difference between automatic transmission fluid and what you would use on a manual. Also, my Haynes manual says i should use Dexron II automatic transmission fluid; anyone have anyobjections to using this?
