Number formating with Variable Not working

I created a variable to assign formats to each value based on the value ID. It works if I only select ONE component ID but when I have a group of ID's it fails and I will always have  a group.  I added the aggr function before and after min function and still does not work unless I select only one.  What am I missing?

vComponentFormat is defined as follows

=if(aggr(min(ComponentFormat),COMPONENT_NAME_RELATED_INFO) = 1,'#,##0.;(#,##0.)',
if(aggr(min(ComponentFormat),COMPONENT_NAME_RELATED_INFO) = 2, '#,##0%',
if(aggr(min(ComponentFormat),COMPONENT_NAME_RELATED_INFO) = 3, '#,##0.0%',
if(aggr(min(ComponentFormat),COMPONENT_NAME_RELATED_INFO) = 4, '#,##0.00;(#,##0.00)',
if(aggr(min(ComponentFormat),COMPONENT_NAME_RELATED_INFO) = 5, '#,##0.00%',
if(aggr(min(ComponentFormat),COMPONENT_NAME_RELATED_INFO) = 6, '#,##0.0;(#,##0.0)',
if(aggr(min(ComponentFormat),COMPONENT_NAME_RELATED_INFO) = 7, '#,##0.000;(#,##0.000)'
)))))))

I tried this as well and same exact results as below.  Switched to using the ID instead of name field and removed Min().  I also tried it without the aggr() function.

if(aggr((ComponentFormat),METRIC_COMPONENT_PK_ID) = 2, '#,##0%',
if(aggr((ComponentFormat),METRIC_COMPONENT_PK_ID) = 3, '#,##0.0%',
if(aggr((ComponentFormat),METRIC_COMPONENT_PK_ID) = 4, '#,##0.00;(#,##0.00)',
if(aggr((ComponentFormat),METRIC_COMPONENT_PK_ID) = 5, '#,##0.00%',
if(aggr((ComponentFormat),METRIC_COMPONENT_PK_ID) = 6, '#,##0.0;(#,##0.0)',
if(aggr((ComponentFormat),METRIC_COMPONENT_PK_ID) = 7, '#,##0.000;(#,##0.000)'
)))))))

Expresssion Formula:

num(
max({<[Year/Month],CURRENT_YEAR_INDICATOR = {'Y'},CURR_IND,[Month No] = {1}>}[Component Value])
,'$(vComponentFormat)')

Thank you!  I tried it with vTest1 as in your example above and it did not work .  SO I replaced vTest1 with vComponentFormat and it worked perfectly.

I must have had one thing out of place when I tried this.  Thank you
