What regex will match every character except comma or semi-colon

Question

Is it possible to define a regex which will match every character except a certain defined character or set of characters   Basically  I wanted to split a string by either comma     or semi-colon      So I was thinking of doing it with a regex which would match everything until it encountered a comma or a semi-colon
