Hi Mark,
Thanks for getting back to me. :-)
The [Not Available] field is a lookup field. Its looking at a field in another table that's a summary field showing when the item is being used. I just want to say that if there's something in that field, I want the user to double check that its not being used during the dates they want it.

If (
[Not available] = "",
"",
"Please check that your items are available during your event dates. Thank you!"
