How are you trying to do this?
If you are having going from progress 9 to 10 specifically what I did was install both 9 and 10 (btw it is ok to simply go to 10.1b which is what I did, I skipped 10.0) on the same server (virtual server works ok), also I installed Vantage 6.0 (we went from 6.0 to 8.3) 6.1, 8.0, 8.3. On this server. The only catch is that progress 9 and progress 10 couldn't be running at the same time.
Here are some simple steps:
install progress 9 and 10.1b (or whatever highest version that is compatible with 8.0)
install 6.1 and 8
restore the converted db onto the 6.1 db
run the utility from the 8.0 cd on the restored 6.1 db
from then you can continue your path to 8.3 on whatever method you have already in place.
I realize that you asked for consulting help, but to me this is simple enough to do on your own considering what you already accomplished.
