Let be a countable atomless Boolean algebra and let X be a countable partial ordering. We prove that there exists an embedding of X into which is recursive in X, and which destroys all suprema and infima of X which can be destroyed. We show that the above theorem is false when we try to preserve all suprema and infima of X instead of destroying them.
