Add following Formulas:
F3 :=IF(OR(E4=0,SUM(E4:$E$6)=0),"",";")
F4 :=IF(OR(E5=0,SUM(E5:$E$6)=0),"",";")
F5 :=IF(OR(E6=0,SUM(E6:$E$6)=0),"",";")
F6 :=IF(OR(E7=0,SUM(E6:$E$7)=0),"",";")
G3= IF(E3=0,"")
G4= IF(AND(E3=0,E4=0),"")
G5= IF(AND(E3=0,E4=0,E5=0),"")
G6= IF(AND(E3=0,E4=0,E5=0,E6=0),"")
H3= IF(G3=0,"",F3)
H4= IF(G4=0,"",F4)
H5= IF(G5=0,"",F5)
H6= IF(G6=0,"",F6)
7. In cell A1(Trigger cell) = CONCATENATE(D3,H3,D4,H4,D5,H5,D6,H6)
8. When We click Check Box 1 , and 3, Value in D3 = W ,D4 = "",D5=Y,D6 =""
