From what? Prints, negatives or slides? If from prints, and you don't mind a bit of color shift, Fuji Sensia makes very nice slides from black and white prints. You can also use Kodak's reversal kit that works with TMax 100. Very nice stuff. From negs. there are ways, but I don't recommend it. One old film was processed in Dektol, shot straight off the negative. Down and dirty, poor image quality. If you want the best quality, go with the Kodak kit. It's a lot of work, takes a long time, and you have to be careful, and adjust development time as you process more film in the developer. Six steps if I remember. Sensia works too. Especially if you do all of them at the same time. Then there isn't a worry of color variations. That's what I use, normally.
