Default Count ; in cell

I've got another software program that will be filling a cell in Excel based
on a multi-select drop-down list. The Excel cell could read

Algonquin;Bloomingdale;Burr Ridge

I'm trying to count the occurrences of ; in that cell then add 1 to get a
total of the number of drop-down selections made from the other program.

The value that I'm looking for here in this example is 3. I've tried
everything that I know to no avail.

Thanks much in advance!!!
