Narrative:
While climbing from FL310 to FL330 on an assigned heading. Received third en route clearance for flow control into ord, which read, 'intercept J105.' there is no inbound heading to mlc on the high chart. While working to determine the inbound heading the aircraft reached a maximum altitude of 33350' before leveling at FL330.
