Default populate Access numeric field with nothing

Hi everyone
i'm having an issue with pushing into Access DB numeric field empty
value from Excel cell using ADO
the following INSERT statement is built dymanicly picking values from
cells and is executed from Excel macro through ADO Execute command: if
a cell which related to field between #11/15/2004# and "blah" is empty
(excel format for that cell is general) the code throughs err message
that type mismatch..Access field set up:
DataType as number
Field size is Double
Required NO
NO Validation Rules , NO Validation Text

SQL statement gives err message:
INSERT INTO Tbl VALUES (99041838306,#11/15/2004#,,"blah")

this record will populate DB without problems:
INSERT INTO Tbl VALUES (99041838306,#11/15/2004#,0,"blah")
thank U in advance
