Default set variable from .find

I'm using the following to search for text in a cell and then assign
that cell to variable. later I select the entire row.

Dim lclRow As Range
With ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Cells
Set lclRow = .Find(What:="LCL")
End With

I want to do three things but am screwing up the procedure.

1. condense the selection to one line. i see no need to use the With
statement in this case.
2.Just search the first column

Ive tried a few version of the following to no avail:

Set lclRow = ActiveSheet.Columns(1).Cells.Find
(What:="LCL")

Set lclRow = Range("A:A").Find(What:="LCL")
both return nothing

3.would like to set lclRow to the entire column in the same statement
if possible.

thanks
