I bought the following 7 segment display:

The common pin is common anode. As the display counts, the lit segments should be off and the off segments should be on. In other words, I see a "-" for the number "0". Should I have bought a common cathode display or a universal display? Short of changing the code for each number, is there a way to make this work?
I am using PIC16F690 with 100 ohm resistors from PORTC to the appropriate segment pin on the display. Each common anode digit pin is connected to a transistor (BC184L). The transistor has to be connected to the positive bar to work.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
