Certainly you can choose whatever groups are present (either from default groups 
or from those in an index file), but I would imagine the command will either 
fail or simply identify that there are no hydrogen bond donors or acceptors 
within what would otherwise be water.

If you have not saved the coordinates for water, you cannot run any command to 
analyze properties related to or involving water.
