Is there a way to display an upline report on an FML Hierarchy.?

I know that if i use the following I will get all the children(Donwline) starting from &ENTITY. Is there a way to get all the parents associated to a certain point in the hierarchy.?

TABLE FILE HIER
PRINT
NAME
FOR
CHILDID
'&ENTITY' WITH CHILDREN ALL AS CAPTION LABEL NAME
END

Reversing the Hierarchy should be easy, as you already have the parent-child relationship.

All you need to do is change the master to have PARENT_OF on the child and point to the parent.

By definition a child in a hierarchy can only have 1 parent.
And you can not report against multiple hierarchies in a single request
