Probably not what you want to here.... but DONT DO IT! Chances are any flirting that you do in work, is on a profesional basis... I mean we all do it.... I chat regularly with some of my female clients, and we are flirty and sometimes a little risky, but it is harmelss fun. Also using confidential info from work, is not alowed. Your job will be around longer than this! If you really feel you must persue proceed with caution and may be suggest she comes for a drink one evening outside of work? Failing that ask her for her number and if she minds you calling, but if she says no then a) It is No and b) You still have to face her at work and be professional!
Good Luck with what every you decide to do!

I was asked out by someone I was working with (I was the client) and I was not interested and turned him down. It made for a very difficult situation after that as he became quite cold and defensive.
If the client is for a project, I would wait until the project ends before making any moves and in the interim, try to build up a personal relationship through conversation etc.
If the client is in an ongoing relationship with your company, you should take it all very very slowly and try to ask her out outside of work hours (and certainly not using company email or phone lines). After a meeting you could suggest having lunch together and broach the subject then. Or, you could try to 'run into' her in a public place at the weekend or in the evening, if she mentions attending a specific bar/gallery/event.
I asked out someone I was working with (he was the client). After meeting with him, I escorted him into the lobby and mentioned that 'after the week we've had, we all need a strong drink".He agreed, so I suggested going for a drink together.
Good luck.

If you fancy a client, or are in a relationship with her, it could lead to a conflict of interest between your company and yourself, so it makes sense for company policy to ban it.
If you hand her over as a client to someone else at work then you would be free to act. In fact, you could kill two birds with one stone because you can tell her that you can't keep her as a client because you fancy her and it's not professionally appropriate.

She may fancy you too and would be happy for you to call her at home. Is she giving you signs that she fancies you? What happens if you go out with her, it doesn't work out and she phones your boss and tells him you phoned her first??
How can a company tell you who you can and can't go out with. Call her in your own time and make sure she calls you at your home.

Speak to her outside of work, then if it does get serious (hopefully!) speak to your manager and let him know that you will not let it interfere with your work. Hopefully, it'll be fine.
