Negative to positive

Question

I have a question. I am using adobe photoshop elements 8.0 on my computer. I am using an HP scanner to scan large format color and black and white negatives for archiving. I want to change these negative images into positive ones using adobe. It seems the way this is done is to click "image-adjustments-invert". I do not seem to have this feature in this version of Adobe photoshop. The operating system on this computer is Windows 7.

Can a negative be converted to a positive using adobe photoshop 8.0 running under windows 7. If not, what would be the oldest version of adobe photoshop with the negative to positive capability compatible with windows 7.

Thank you, Pete
