In MS Word, by default, you can use:

Ctrl+F4 to close Word
Ctrl+W to close the current document

Is it possible to make Word close when you close the last open document?

For instance, in Chrome, if you keep hitting Ctrl+W you'll eventually close the last tab, which will also close Chrome. I'd like the same functionality with Word (and the other Office products) where I can just keep closing documents until I close the last one, at which point the application closes. Unfortunately, Ctrl+W doesn't close Word, even when there are no documents open.
