I need the code for selecting a specific range of cells on the same row
as the active cell. The active cell will be selected with a cell.find
operation, so it will not always be in the same column. Thus, an
activecell.offset won't work.

I tried putting the range in the code, but it failed. Here is how the
code looks now:

Sub Look_Here()
Dim WhatFor
WhatFor = ActiveSheet.Cells(4, 1)

Cells.Find(What:=WhatFor, after:=ActiveCell, SearchDirection:=xlNext,
searchorder:=xlByRows, MatchCase:=False).Activate
Range(ActiveCell.Offset(0, -1), ActiveCell.Offset(0, 8)).Select <---IT
IS HERE THAT I WANT TO REFER TO CELLS A:J ON THE SAME ROW AS THE
ACTIVE(found) CELL.

thanks to all

After you have got the ActiveCell:

Dim RW As Long
RW = ActiveCell.Row
Range(Cells(RW, "A"), Cells(RW, "J")).Select
