I cannot get past mission 11 on TPR. (I believe it's TPR my disk has both games on it) It's the one that doesn't have any building. Anyway, I can't beat it and my husband can't beat it so I just want to skip it. How do I do it?

You could rename it, play again, the screen will be black for a bit and then you will have won.
(optionally) make a savegame and rename the mission back to what it was.

You can rename it back to the old name after you have a savegame of the next mission of course, so don't worry

I'll give you step by step instructions:

1. Go to <KAM_DIR>\data\mission (where <KAM_DIR> is the folder that contains KaM, probably 'C:\Program Files\KaM - TPR' or something.
2.
TO SKIP A TPR MISSION:
Rename the file dmission#.dat to dmission#-old.dat (where # is the mission number you want to skip)

TO SKIP A TSK MISSION:
Rename the file mission#.dat to mission#-old.dat (where # is the mission number you want to skip)

3. Start KaM and load the save of the mission you are stuck on.
4. Quit the mission, and in the statistics screen, (with DEFEAT! at the top) click restart mission.
5. After the briefing, the map will appear black for a few seconds then the mission will complete saying that you have won, and letting you move on to the next mission.
6. Once you have started the new mission and made a save, go back to the folder and rename the file back to what it was. (e.g. mission#-old.dat to mission#.dat)

Let me know how it goes.
Lewin.
