We look for space-time correlations between 2233 gamma-bursts in the
Batse Catalogs and 894 upward-going muons
produced by neutrino interactions in the rock below or inside MACRO.
Considering a search cone of 
around GRB directions
and a time window of 
s we find 0 events to be compared to
0.035 expected background events due to atmospheric neutrinos.
The corresponding upper limit (90% c.l.) is
cm-2 upward-going muons per
average burst.
Key words: gamma-ray bursts (GRB)
