I am using the following apps to edit documents located on the server at my work location from my home - Cisco AnyConnect VPN,
FB file browser and Pages. I can easily bring up a document and edit it in Pages using these apps but I can not find a way to
save the edited document back to the the server at work. I could email the document to my self but it seems to me that if I can
load the document onto my iPad then I should be able to save it. I can't find the procedure in any documentation.

The iPad is app-centric so in normal operations files exist within apps. To get the file out, you have to use one of the methods the app has been designed to support.

Another option might be to get some kind of VPN app on your iPad, but I don't have experience with such an approach.

Just some ideas for you to kick around. Best!
