Default What is the intialized value for a cell with general format?

I am attempting to value one cell in a workbook based on whether there is a
value in another cell. I have tried to check for zeros and spaces and
neither seems to work. The format of the cell that I am checking is general.

The inital value of a cell is blank. In code you can check to see if the
value is equal to "" or in the sheet you can use the IsBlank function.
