Then maybe your real input data is different from what you provided as sample, couse my code works OK on your sample data (at least in my environment).

Code:
$ cat file1.txt

32123-5400
32442-5333

Reason : DEF
42523-3453

$ awk -vRS="" '{system("echo \""$0"\" |sort -n -t- -k2");print ""}' file1.txt

Never mind Bartus..

I got it ...

awk -vRS="" '{system("echo \""$0"\" |sort -n -t- -k2");print}' file1.txt

Removed the "" after the print and it worked great.

Thanks ...

Code:
nawk  'BEGIN{RS=""}{system("echo \""$0"\" |sort -n -t- -k2");print ""}' file
