How can I get fieldinfo from propertinfo?

Hi everyone,
My problem is that, I assign values to properties of unknown object. Unfortunately, some properties are can writable(set not implemented or read-only etc.). So, I tried to search the field which it have same type and same value, but it does not look like an optimum solution and it's failed. Is there any way to reach fieldInfo or to set an value to non-writable property.

Thanks in advance.

I don't think there is a simple way. It may be possible using reflection, but even then not guaranteed - not every property is a simple field-accessor. Not every field name matches the property name.
It might be possible be examining the emitted IL and looking for an instruction reading the property, but I suspect that's an overkill, and even then non necessarily reliable.

Thanks for your response, you are right. I could not find a simple way too.
