Please let me know what I am doing wrong. 

Solutions:

The 80040410 error occurs when the company file mode specified on QODBC Setup Screen differs from the Company file opened in QuickBooks.

Please enable the below option on QODBC & try again. Please select the "Use the company file that's now open in QuickBooks" option & mode when opening "Same as company file":

Start>> QODBC Driver for use with QuickBooks >> Configure QODBC Data Source >>Go To "System DSN" Tab >> select DSN name >> click "configure" >> General tab >> select mode when opening "Same as company file" option.

After changing the above settings, please open the company file in QuickBooks, which you want to open & try to connect using your application.
