How to create keyboard shortcut to move to beginning and end of Microsoft Word for Mac Document?

On my Macintosh El Capitan, most applications treat fn + Left arrow as move to beginning of document and fn + Right arrow as move to end of the document. How can I set up keyboard shortcuts in Microsoft Word for Mac v15.26 (Office 365) to have the same functionality to move to beginning and end of a Word document?

For the keyboard shortcut to move to beginning of a document use ⌘ + Home or ⌘ + fn + Left arrow .

To move to end of a document, use ⌘ + End or ⌘ + fn + Right arrow .

What do you do if your Macintosh bluetooth keyboard does not have Home or End is there a way to still type those keys?

The Office support page and the above answer (see "or . ") mention the alternatives to Home and End for a Mac keyboard that doesn't have them. Try command + fn with the appropriate arrow key.

Correct, the arrow keys with command and fn work, my comment was whether there is anyway to generate a Home or End key on a keyboard without those keys labeled?
