 How do I change the clock on KDE 2.1.1 to 12hr time instead of 24 hr time.

Right click on the clock
Select Date  Time Format
The dialog box that pops up is going to be for selecting your locale.
You can select NorthAmerica-US and it will convert the format for you,
or you can do it manually by selecting the Time and Dates Tab and
converting the %H to %l (lower case L).

Addendum:  Forget to say in the last email that you must restart KDE for
it to take effect.  If in runlevel 5, logout and then log back in. If in
runlevel 3, logout then startx again.
