Extracting data from Numbers into a Calendar Event

I am creating a script to bring some data from a Numbers Table into my Calendars in order to quickly create meetings. I have the script working, however I am trying to streamline the process a little more as I keep receiving a small error that I have to dismiss. When the script is trying to read Column J it is receiving the error. I have a pop-up Menu for column J. The answers are either Yes or No. And I have it set to Start with Blank. I want the script to move on to the next row whenever it encounters either a No or that blank that it starts with. I receive the error and once I dismiss it moves on but again trying to avoid the error. The error is because of that Blank. It is not reading the blank correctly. How is the Blank that a pop-up menu read, since I have tried both having the script read as an empty value and also as a Blank. Below is a copy of my script for the Numbers portion. Again I have tried the script reading as "" instead of Blank and still produced the same results.

tell theTable

set rowCount to count rows

-- Start from row 2 to skip headers

if rowCount > 1 then

repeat with j from 2 to rowCount

try

set companyName to value of cell ("B" & j)

set shouldCreateEvent to value of cell ("J" & j) as string

set locationText to value of cell ("C" & j) as text

-- Check if company name exists, if not, end the script

if companyName is missing value or companyName is "" then

display dialog "No company name in row " & j & ". Ending script."

return

end if

-- Skip row if shouldCreateEvent is not set or set to default

if shouldCreateEvent is missing value or shouldCreateEvent is "" or shouldCreateEvent is "Blank" then

-- Optionally log or inform about the skip

-- display dialog "Row " & j & " skipped due to default or empty selection in column J."

nothing -- Continue to the next row

else if shouldCreateEvent is "Yes" then

set eventDescription to "Meeting with " & companyName & " at " & locationText

-- Prompt for date and time for each event

set eventStartDate to my promptForDateTime("Enter the start date and time for the event with " & companyName)

if eventStartDate is missing value then

display dialog "Event creation cancelled or invalid date entered. Skipping this event."

exit repeat

end if

set eventEndDate to eventStartDate + 30 * minutes -- Events are 30 minutes long

my addToCalendar(eventStartDate, eventEndDate, eventDescription, locationText)

else if shouldCreateEvent is not "No" then

display dialog "Unexpected value '" & shouldCreateEvent & "' at row " & j & ", column J, expected 'Yes', 'No', or 'Blank'. Skipping this row."

end if

on error errMsg number errNum

display dialog "Error at row " & j & " when fetching data: " & errMsg & " (Number: " & errNum & ")" buttons {"OK"} default button "OK"

return -- or continue if you want to skip only this row

end try
