If you have a small amount of film to process, then go to any photo processor. If you have large quantities of negatives however, then invest in a scanner. Epsom, HP, and I am sure many other manufacturers can supply either specialist or general scanners that can handle 35mm negatives and slides.

Yes. Any 35 mm negative or positive film or slides can be scanned. As a result you will have a picture file (jpg) of that frame.
Regarding the quality: I did some test so I scanned 5 rolls, 35mm negatives color film at Costco. They scan at 300 dpi which is NOT enough ! and they are able to scan and put everything on a CD only from rolls NOT from already cutted films. So you must have rolls in one piece !!!
That so I decided to buy a flatbed scanner in order to scan all my old 35mm negatives rolls and slides at a much higher resolution.
So now I own a scanner Canon 4400F which is able to scan negatives and slides at 9600 dpi (maximum optical resolution). The results are very good !! However ...ideal is to scan , negatives, at highest optical resolution in order to get best quality BUT the scanning process at 9600 dpi is taking 6 minutes for a slide/frame. So it is time consuming process. That why, a good idea, is to scan at 2400 dpi, see what you get and if you really want the best quality for one specific frame, go and scan at 9600 dpi.

just bring your negs to a photo lab. cost is the same as the time of developing. call about there prices first. we charge$4 for 1-40 pics in a CD, then 10 cents for each one after that.

I scan my own 35 mm negs at a resolution of between 2400 and 3200 dpi.
That puts them into digital form.
Then I optimise them.
They can be copied onto cd, etc.

Oh Yes, that is how it is done any how. Take the neg to any photo store/ chemist and they will do it. If you have loads of money buy a negative scanner.
