I installed SW 2019 and now opening existing drawings, the BOM is gone off the drawing. Any ideas why?

Is your BOM template in the same location as it was for your previous version of Solidworks? I am guessing that when you installed 2019 your template and or location are not pointing to the same files as your previous installation.
Does a BOM maintain a link to the template? I wouldn't have thought so, but I could be wrong.
Do you use 2019 SOLIDWORKS Help - Table Anchors for your BOM and other tables? If so, did you change your drawing template or sheet format and move the anchor?

What does "gone off the sheet" mean? Position is wrong? not visible at all? Can you find it with "Zoom to fit"?
Is the feature still in the tree for the BOM? If so, what happens if you click it? Can you right-click it? Is "Hide table" or "Show table" in the right-click menu?
Not sure if this relates to your issue ..... is your BOM an Excel BOM?
Solidworks 2018 crashes if Excel from office 365 is used.
