You need to check if the Value property of the DataGridViewCell is Nothing (the equivalent of null in C#).

You can do that with the following code:

If myDataGridView.CurrentCell.Value Is Nothing Then
    MessageBox.Show("Cell is empty")
Else
    MessageBox.Show("Cell contains a value")
End If

If you want to inform the user when they try to leave the cell that it has been left empty, you need to use similar code in the CellValidating event handler method. For example:

Private Sub myDataGridView_CellValidating(ByVal sender As Object,
               ByVal e As DataGridViewCellValidatingEventArgs)
               Handles myDataGridView.CellValidating
    If myDataGridView.Item(e.ColumnIndex, e.RowIndex).Value Is Nothing Then
        ' Show the user a message
        MessageBox.Show("You have left the cell empty")

        ' Fail validation (prevent them from leaving the cell)
        e.Cancel = True
    End If
End Sub
